GTA 5 Online Heist Locations and DLC Info Leaked

As renowned YouTuber DomisLive (aka Dom) notes in his latest video, the new information pertaining to Heist DLC locations has been sourced through leaked game files for GTA Online.

Here are the excerpts of the leaked Heist DLC information as mentioned in the leaked game code for GTA 5 Online:

IS_HEIST_BANK_RENDERED – This native or piece of source code calls for the game to render the interior/files required for a Heist mission in the bank located near Rockford Hills.

IS_CLIENT_SIDED_CONTEXT – This native checks that the client either has synchronised the game with others [for example if a car is destroyed] or if the action is for the client to see only and others are blind to the situation, this could be for a function known as Blind Eye.

LOCATE_NEAREST_REDNER_POINT – This native calls for the nearest ‘Render Point’ which is used for AI spawning etc during a Heist mission.

IS_JEFF_CONTACT_ENABLED – The contact we leaked before called ‘JEFF’ who will offer special abilities during Heist missions will be enabled on your phone contact list when this native is called.

IS_NIGHTVISION_ENABLED – This native calls for the Night Vision mode to activate, this means it will be used during certain parts of Heist missions.

IS_APARTMENT_HEIST_ACTIVE – This native activates the Heist-planning board depending on the progress of the Heist you had planned.

As the tipster notes in his recent post on nillxforums, the freshly leaked Heist DLC information hints at a host of new room interiors, clothing, weapons, vehicles and the biggest DLC to be released till date.

It has been ascertained that Rockstar Games has further pushed back the release of Heist DLC to 2015, following a spate of leaks pertaining to Heist Update via YouTube in the last couple of weeks leading to Christmas Day.

Apart from the leaked natives, the following game code pertaining to Heist Planning Room for GTA Online Apartment and other features have been revealed:
